I am currently able to use my computer because I am using LXQt and LightDM.
Yesterday I attempted to upgrade from Ubuntu 22.04 LTS to Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. Unfortunately the upgrade had some errors. After restarting my PC, I was greeted by this white error screen.
I then booted into rescue mode and installed lightdm. I was then able to access the login screen, but I could not log in to GNOME since the white error screen would appear again. I then installed LXDE and I was able to log in. I am now using LXQt. I would like to fix GNOME since it has my GNOME keyring on it and other settings. I would also like to use Wayland again since I get better graphical performance when playing video games on this PC. I am using a Radeon RX 580 Series GPU and no proprietary drivers are in use.
I am now going to put some system information in this post:
